XanGo and Operation Smile
Embark on a
Season of Smiles
Utah Governor Gary Herbert Recognizes XanGo's
Support of Operation Smile
to Improve Children's Lives Across the Globe,
One Smile at a Time |
| |
LEHI, UT - With spring in full bloom,
XanGo, LLC
and Operation Smile welcome another type of renewal: a
season of smiles. Last week initiated a series of joint
missions as XanGo distributors accompanied Operation Smile
to
Tlaxcala,
Mexico, to support medical volunteers who performed 100
cleft lip and cleft palate corrective surgeries. The smile
tour continues with three additional stops through July.
XanGo has supported Operation Smile for several years.
During that time, we?ve grown our philanthropic partnerships
alongside the global expansion of our business," said XanGo
Founder and Board Chairman
Aaron Garrity.
Just last week, the company received recognition from Utah
Governor Gary Herbert for continued support of Operation
Smile. Garrity adds, "The success of the XanGo
missionswith
Operation Smile is truly a testament to our distributors,
whose efforts to build their independent businesses make it
all possible."
Looking ahead, XanGo and Operation Smile will make a return
visit to
Guadalajara,
Mexico, for the fourth time in two years, where they expect
to perform 100 surgeries from May 17 to 23. The following
week, XanGo and Operation Smile will make their first trip
to Chonburi, Thailand, to provide 100 surgeries to children
of the farmers who harvest mangosteen fruit, the source of
XanGo's success. The season of smiles will conclude with a
July mission to Ulan Ude, Russia, a country in which XanGo
started doing business last year, to perform 50 surgeries.
"With their unceasing energy and enthusiasm for doing good,
the XanGo community shares with
Operation
Smile a common
commitment to the children of the world," says Operation
Smile Co-Founder Bill Magee. "Operation Smile is honored to
be a part the XanGo family and truly grateful that this
shared passion continues to grow and change the lives of
children and their families across the globe."
Each year, more than 200,000 children are born with a cleft
lip and/or cleft palate, and are often unable to eat, speak,
socialize or smile. With the help of dedicated medical
volunteers and through generous donations and partnerships,
Operation Smile provides free surgeries to children around
the world, healing their smiles and bringing hope for a
better future.
XanGo's support of Operation Smile stems from a
core value
to transcend mere "check-writing" and change lives. XanGo
routinely provides monetary
donations,
advisory board participation, volunteer programs and
partnerships in medical expeditions, community education and
humanitarian efforts. Of particular interest is improving
the lives of children around the world and mobilizing to
address disasters and crises.
